I'm six days at the same weight :-/ it sucks. I likes seeing that pound disappear every day. I lost 16 pounds in the two weeks postop (before this stall started) and 6 preop. My current weight is 227.6. I'm hoping that this stall will end soon, it's discouraging.

I lost 11.4 pounds my first week post surgery. 4.9 pounds of that was the day after surgery. That stomach of mine must have been huge! My weight day of surgery was 226. I'm now almost 4 weeks post-op and weigh 206.

I had my sleeve on 4/30 and was down 12 pounds the first week. After that I got on the scale a couple of days and there were small gains! I was super discouraged so I decided to weigh myself once a week from now on.

The 3 week stall actually refers to a stall that many of us have around 3 weeks post surgery. If you search it under forums you will find probably dozens of posts about it.

I weigh every day but didn't weigh from my approval date until my first post-op appointment, so I really don't know what the loss was the first couple of weeks.

I was down 12 lbs on arrival home from the hospital. (2 day stay) I walked a lot...I was bored.

Now at almost 3 weeks out, i'm am 27 lbs down and that's before I start my workouts tonight.

I had a drain in for 2 weeks post op, maybe that helped and that kept me away from any workouts...that thing was extremely uncomfortable.

I gained about 10 pounds due to all the fluids in surgery... so I think by the end of the first week i had lost most of that..haha.

I had big losses the first month even with the week 1 gain.

I'm out one week exactly since surgery. I lost 12 lbs; however, I'm still on a liquid diet so I'm sure that helped, I lost 8 lbs in the week before surgery, so a total of 20 lbs in 2 weeks. I'm pretty sure this will taper down as the weeks go on. I'm very excited for this journey to health!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
